Bahariya Oasis
A Story Rooted in the Oasis
Long before Old Oasis became a hotel, it was an old oasis home surrounded by palm trees, mud-brick houses and the quiet rhythm of life in Bahariya.
Travelers began coming here to experience something beyond a conventional stay — to live closer to the palms, the people and the authentic rural life of the oasis.
That experience inspired El Hajj Saleh to develop the old home while preserving its original spirit, opening Old Oasis Safari & Hotel in 2000.
